Hebrews 7:22

By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
20

And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

21

(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)

22

By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

23

And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

24

But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

Christ as High Priest

The verse states Jesus is a "surety of a better testament," which focuses on the nature of the covenant rather than explicitly detailing his role as a priest, mediator, or intercessor. While a "better testament" might imply a new system, it doesn't directly name or describe priestly functions.
